SpedU Dlipatches to The Bee.
The committee interested in the
enforcement of the eight-hour rule
ctme before the president yesterday.
They were headed by Representative
.Desend.orf , of the Norfolk ( Va ) dis-
trict'who preiented their case , and
made known the object of their visit.
The interview wai short. The presi
dent asked several questionrof minor
Importance. He replied to the re
quest of the committee as follows : "I
have never looked into the question
involved , nor given careful consider
ation of it. I will do botb.and would
advise you to see the attorney general
and atk his opinion : "
There was comparatively f short
session of the cabinet yesterday. The
question of an extra session wea talked
over , without reaching final action.
No other business of importacco was
under discussion.
Secret aiy Blaine received a cable
dispatch Irom Minister Noyes yester
day stating that the French gorern-
tnpnt had agreed that all pork loaded
upon ships before tha passage of the
French decree concerning pork im
ported from the United States , should
be admitted into Franca subject to in
spection , and with"as little delay aa
such examination permits.
GIGANTIC XAND SWINDLE.
Officials of the general land office of
this city regard the land swindling
operations recently unearihed at St.
Louis the greatest over perpetrated on
the government. Ita inception dates
bsck to 1854 Many of the men who
organized the awindle are now living.
It la believed at the land office that
government officials must have been
in collusion with the swindlers. In
vestigation that led to the exposure of
the gigantic swindles -was instituted
by Secretary Schnrz over a year ago ,
who assigned Special Agent Terrill to
the work. The story of their ed ven
tures eonnds like a romance. . .Rami
fications of the swindles extend to
PitUburg , Cleveland and other cities.
A number of persoua have alrrady
been arrested in those cities , and oth
ers will be. The swindlers obtained
fraudulent letters to more than a mil
lion acres , a portion of which they
sold to innocent settlers. The ques
tion to be referred to the attorney-
ganeral is whether civil suits can be
csgnn tovacate the title to these
lauds. It is sifel.o"Bay that whatever
i\donowill , be as easy for tha settlers
ai the government can possibly make
it. _ Congress could confirm all titles ,
and 'will t > robably be .appealed to.
The democrats annoonce that they
will withhold every vote If necessary
to prevent the appointment of new
senate officers. This , in the absence
.cLEdmnnds , would leave the republi
cans without a quorum and powerless
to act. The republicans , however ,
intend to attempt the completion oi
tbo organization of the senate OB
Monday. s _
r Tbe state department issues a warn
ing , to capitalists against investing in
the newly discovered mineral lands in
the vallty of Humbar , on the east
coast of "Newfoundland. ' This tract it
included in the guir&ntea to the
French fishermen by the treaty oi
Vrrpailles in 1785 , and the same
declaration cxprosly f irbids ihe erec
tion of any stationary buildings there
on. The state department deems thii
warniug sufficient to prevent specula
tors from running the risk which
wuuld.arhe from infringement of the
" right , guaraLtoed thu French in thli
"respect.
THE EXTKA SKSSIOJf.
The question of afi extra session ol
congress no wacitates the public mind ,
and it io expected early in May. A
majority of the members do not de <
sire an extra eession , but the leaden
do , and may carry their point. Sec'
rotary Blaine is quoted as favotiag it ,
Vice President Arthur and Senatore
Conkling , Cameron ( Pa. ) , and Ligai
stand in the same position , and claim
that public policy demands immediate
legislation in the matter of funding
tha dnbt. Democrats , including Sen
ators Pendlotou and Hampton , fail tc
BOO why republicans wish to resumi
work on a measure they once de
foatod.

An Agreement to Pronibit Dlscrlm
Inailons.
Special Dgp lch to I Do Bco.
NEW YORK , March 19 1 a. "m.-
Although it has been welt known i
outsiders and published in the news
papers , that representatives of thi
leading railroads have agreed to put ;
stop to the cutting of rates , details o
the proceedings of t > e rjcsnt confer
ence were kept secret until Yesterday
It is learned that an agreement was entered
tored into by the companies thai if an ;
agent or sub-agent of any road shal
cut under regular schedule rates , al
roads will immediately reduce rates ti
the same figures. Each compan ;
would thus be punished for the otfene
of employes. Presidents and direc
tors are to be held reponsible , and al
acts of employes in regard to freigh
ratea or contracts shall bo conslderet
the same as though such acts were au
thorized by the highest officials of th
companies. In addition to the abov
features of thu compact , it was als
agreed that freight would be dividei
at certain western points. Tbia rega
lation of business is to go into effec
at an early date. Managers of th
railroad companies now flatter then
Belves that they nave at last effected
compact which will not be soon broker
Heretofore managers have not hel
themselves airictly responsible for ih
cutting done by tbeir agents , who de
sire to secure contracts with a certai
class of shippers.

THE SONS OF'LIBERTr.
Correspondence of Tut Bss.
GRAND ISLAND , March 1C. The ac
tion of our last legislature in passing
the high license law and proposing the
woman suffrage amendment , meets
with great opposition among the most
substantial classes cf our citizens.
And they are not satisfied with only
condemning tbeae acts of the legisla
ture , but have commenced work to de
feat such legislation work that will
probably ba done in dead earnest , and
have considerable influence on our po
litical affurs.
Several years ago an association was
formed here , consisting of a numbsi
of our best known business men , irre
spective of pirty lines , calling themselves -
selves "The Sous of Liberty , " to "de
fend the liberty of thu people against
the encroachments of woman suffrage
and temperance legislation. " Everyday
accessions of substantial
day bring-s new
tial business men to this association.
None of the dealers in liquors ' belong
to this association. Tn'esfl dealers
hava their repnrats crgan'zation ,
called ihe 'i.ic.juso Liagut- . " The
ioteutiun ia to spread the association
of the ' 'Sons of Liberty" all over Ne
braska , and also over other states , tc
form a union cf the Nebraska sssocia
tions , nt.d also if possible a consolida
tion of different st.i'o organizitijni ,
We hope tha' in every county ot Ne
braska some good tmn Will start t
sinvlar movement amonv ? the beat
known citizens. Avoid the old well-
known party politicians and wine
, ( swillers , who will , as alwayp , belraj
' us , and lot the dealers in liquors fern
their own organization ? . Unite al
nationalities , aud don't allow anybody
to enter thso associations unless yoi
are perfectly sure ha will houesth
work for the object of the same. An <
by all means don't lose time. Worl
earnestly nod wt.rk at once.
The pretent board of the Gram
Island bsaoeiation of the ' 'Sons o
Liberty" consists > f : Fred Huddo
president ; Ed Hooper , vice-president
Hy A Koenig , treasurer ; Hy G rn
secretary.
It nill not do to accuse enl the lat
legislature as miserable aa most of th
members may have been. The whol
people , and especially the great mas
of onr business men , who didn't taki
a sufficiently lively interest in , on
elections , deserve censure. We mus
admit that we all are t fault , allo *
ing demagogues and wire-pullers ti
rule , and we must try to make amend
by doing good work in the future.
